A Pointer for Pensioners,

IF pensioners knew when they are we'll of
they would not, as rule, try to get an in.
crease of pay" said the secretary to PROM
inent Democratic senator the other day.
"You would be surprised" continued he, iii
Iwere to tell you what large proportion OF
those who apply for an increase of pension
have their pensions cut off entirely. In one
week no less than ten of the pensioners we
attempted to get increases for were deprived
of all their pay. OF course pension cases are
re-opened whenever application is made fol
increase, and the case is made new, as il
were. 1t requires just as much testimony tc
get an increase as it does to get an Original
pension. In the investigation for an increase
1T often develops that the pensioner is moi
entitled to any pension at all. Fully 10 pei
cent. of those who ask for increases get left
entirely. Many who think their proof il
indisputable are amazed to learn that there
are defects somewhere which had the effect
of cutting them off entirely.
"Where pensioner is dead positive that
his record and disabilities are beyond the
pale of dispute, he can safely go and try for
an increase, if he thinks his rating is too low
but if he is not sure of this he had better &C
slow; in fact he had better make no effort al
all. A clerk at the pension Office told me the
other day that there were half as many pen
sions being dropped as allowed nowadays
and that most of those dropped came from
the list of applicants for increase"

~ For some unaccountable cause the
rock-ribbed Democratic county of Holmes
has a Republican county treasurer. And he
is a smarty, too. So smart that he usurped
his power and gave the delinquent tax list to
his own party paper. The auditor said moth
ing until the Republican paper had the entire
list in type, when he gave the advertisement
to the Farmer, the Democratic paper, where
it belonged, as the list is published by the
auditor and not the treasurer. The above
little incident should learn the good Demo
Gratis of Holmes a lesson-put none but good
Democrats on deck and stick to the organiza-
ton. 1t is the only way to keep hungry Re-
publican cats out of the treasury.
Democratic Northwest. [volume] (Napoleon, Ohio) 1869-1894, 1887-01-13

.:Y~ The politics in Ohio is peculiar. The
Republicans are never sure of the State until
the votes are counted out, while the Demo
Gratis never give up until all the counties are
heard from. We will witness the liveliest
political fight in Ohio next year ever heard
of outside of a Presidential year. The DEM
ocrats will be united on some good and
popular man like Hon. M. A. Foran, while
the Republicans will be distracted and divid-
ed over the whisky problem, the labor ques-
ton, and the Presidential candidate for 1888.
As it looks now the Democrats have decid.
ed advantage. Foraker's management OF
the penitentiary is anything but praise
worthy; it is dishonest and unlawful. He
disregards the law and the rights of labor
ingmen, by throwing the products of the
prison pen into competition with honest
labor. If our managers show ordinary skill
and tact next year the Governor and Legis-
lature will both be Depocratic.- Youngs-
toUn Vindicator.

.5y- Judge Handy is holding Court in Hen
ry county-the land of saloons, high taxes,
litigation-and emocrats.-Wauseon Trib-
une.
We clip the above from the Wauseon
Tribune, a Republican sheet, which has little
honor outside of doing the dirty work of its
party. tits simply jealous of our town and
county, which is far ahead of old sleepy Full
ton and Wauseon. There is not near the
whisky drank in Napoleon that there is in
Wauseon, and as for high taxes, the tax rate
in this county will compare favorably with
neighboring counties, and we have some
thing to show for taxes collected, whereas
the Republican bosses of Fulton have ex-
pended hundreds of thousands of dollars
collected by taxation and have nothing to
show for it, but the plethoric pockets of coun-
ty officials. In fact these Republican bosses
had become such bold rascals that the honest
Republicans arose in their mightlast fall and
hurled them from power, electing the best
part of the Democratic ticket-preferring
honest Democrats to scheeming Republicans.
And if all reports are true the editor of the
Tribune had better clear his own garments
from the stain of corruption before he throws
mud at his neighbors-the Democrats of
Henry county.

a The delinquent tax list of this county
Is slightly larger than it was last year, prin-
cipally swelled by delinquent lots in Eapo-
leon and other towns. The list is entirely
too large and does not reflect healthy con-
dition of the property owners of the county.
We notice in the list some $3.50 due the
county for taxes upon the Sheffield & Norton
lands. This should not be, in justice to the
creditors. These lands should be sold at
once, the accrued taxes paid and the balance
of the proceeds divided among the creditors.
The Receiver should be ordered to sell this
at once.
